Machine-translated summary — verify against original

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare commissioned the National Institute of Food and Drug Safety Evaluation to purchase foods actually circulated in 15 regions nationwide from September to October 2017. They estimated the annual radiation dose from radioactive cesium in food. The results showed that the radiation dose received by a person in one year from radioactive cesium in food is estimated to be between 0.0006 and 0.0011 millisieverts per year, which is less than 1% of the current standard limit of 1 millisievert per year, confirming that the dose is extremely small.
